Versailles: The Life and Times of Queen Khira

  Sometimes, we just have to sit Still...There is absolutely NOTHING to be done.  This place, my Loves, is by far one of the toughest destinations along our journey... One of the reasons we enjoy routine is because it provides a certain sense of comfort.  We welcome the known; it's a familiar friend...Whelp, you, just like me, chose MORE.  We couldn't leave well enough alone; and so, here we are!  On the glorious bright side, arriving at the "Pause", is a definite sign of progression😀.   We are now learning to shed the construct of TIME.  Just Stop.  Do not allow stress, anxiety, or the spirit of overwhelm force any action from you Ever  again.  Simply Chill .  That's it.  Know that the storm is raging OUTSIDE.  You are perfectly safe on the inside; with all you need until it passes. Only a Fool would go out in weather like that!  Instead, focus on the Present Moment.    Enjoy the warmth of the fi...

Existing in a world where codependency is the norm, it comes as no surprise to me that we are never directed to first look within ourselves for the answers to some of life's biggest challenges and unanswered questions.  As a consumer in a capitalistic society, we are hardwired to seek solace in the comfort of others, retail therapy, or some other unnecessary over indulgence in an attempt to forget.  The funny thing is, these things are simply designed as a means to forget, not at all associated with the actual healing process,  which is essential to you being able to move on. People and vices are not answers, nor are they feelings.   What we are attempting to come to terms with in ANY situation, are the feelings behind it, and how they affect us.  There isn't another living soul on the planet with more experience on the subject of your feelings than YOU.  So why are we so quick to seek out the opinions of others on a subject it is impossible for th...

Life has been something special lately!  After a year filled with the moon showing out like it hasn't for centuries, it's amazing that any goddesses are left standing!👏  It's literally felt like all the craziness of the outside world decided to pay me a visit over the past several weeks and wreak havoc on every peaceful crevice I used to rely on for refuge.   What do we do on those days when it feels like the universe has turned its back on us? During what appeared to be a full on Tempest of BS, I needed a quiet.  I desperately needed to retreat to my Mind Palace and analyze this sh💥t storm piece by piece.  I started to pay attention to everything that was going on around me, particularly what was happening to the people in my everyday life.  EVERYONE was going THROUGH IT. When I took that much needed step back, I was able to discern what I was doing.  Instead of me focusing on the here and now, I was obsessing over hypothetic...

When it comes to love and relationships, I find the most frequently asked question is, “how do you make it LAST?!”  I always find this to be a particularly strange question, ESPECIALLY if you and your partner have been together for a significant amount of time.  You SHOULD know that person better than anyone else, and hold all the keys for success in that particular relationship.  Asking someone else how to keep your stuff together is like asking someone else to explain what you are feeling: ridiculous and damn near impossible. First and Foremost, I DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT give relationship advice, nor do I insert myself into anybody’s personal situation, even when asked.  The reason being, whatever decisions you are arriving at concerning your mate are COMPLETELY yours to make, and whatever you decide will be YOUR life choice.  I want to be completely free from any repercussion that could potentially occur; you will NOT be blaming me for your poor decision mak...

When we were kids, friendship was so simple.  If I gave you a bracelet, then it was ON; we were practically siblings from that point foward!!  If only it was still so cut and dry... Oh Wait, IT IS!!! Since starting my journey, I have noticed myself becoming agitated with friends and acquaintances I previously didn’t feel this  way about.  The source of my aggravation came from a place that was feeling like I was a much better friend and source of support to others than they are to me.  I was angry because I still have that childlike view of friendship, that I get what I GIVE.  Because I wasn’t feeling that reciprocation, I became imbittered, and started putting stipulations and regulations on myself and the level of friendship I would give out. This of course is TOTALLY INSANE.   What I decided to do after much back and forth with my higher self was to redefime the friendships/relationships in my life.  Just because you and I are friendly and acq...

Sometimes I'm so good, I impress myself!!  This is actually something I wrote for Nouveau, my makeup blog, but after writing it, I realized the readers of Versailles could definitely benefit and appreciate this as well;-) Makeup is one of those things in life that is meant to improve our perception of reality.  Makeup in and of itself does nothing to enrich the individual on a spiritual level, however, because of the effect it has on what we perceive as REAL, and has the capability to improve what you see and how you are seen each day when you open your eyes, it holds unspeakable power.  I'm using this to my advantage, because, no person is complete if there are things inside that make us feel less than desirable.  This post won't contain any beauty hacks or products to try, it's going to offer TRUE PERSPECTIVE, it's makeup for the inside... Let's Begin... What have you done today to make you smile?  Take the time to hand craft your day.  Wha...

Yo, MY PEACE is worth fighting for.  with that being said, we are at WAR.  There will be enemies, there will be allies, and most importantly, there will be CASUALTIES.   Your enemies will be those who have absolutely no interest in a peaceful existence, and could give 2 shits about preserving yours.  Your allies will be the like minded individuals who are currently on their own personal journey, constantly striving to be their best versions.   Now your casualties, hehehe, is where it starts to get complicated, and your feelings start to become involved.  Your casualties will be the individuals that you actually thought had potential.  They will usually be the ones we fought the hardest against our own better judgement to save.  These fatalities will be painful to our psyche, because, sometimes we have to let go of someone that MATTERS.  The most painful part is coming to that realization.  ...

Have you ever had something happen, either directly or indirectly, that shakes shit up in your world so much in that moment that it leaves you contemplating whether or not what just occurred was real?  As of late, this is a feeling that I have become all too familiar with. What I noticed happening was that I was allowing whatever happened to hijack my day and consume my energy.  In these moments, all I could feel myself yearning for was my routine and the things in everyday life that renew me everyday... So why wasn't I doing these things to get myself out of this weird space??!! That is the million dollar question.  That feeling of being stuck can be overwhelming; this is the opportune time for a reset...which is exactly what I did.  I began the day with meditation, as I felt completely disconnected from my higher self.  It was like remote viewing, I could see my higher self and that she was desperately attempting to communicate with me, but ...

Golden people  von  Irmgard Schoendorf Welch AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!  I just needed to get that out right quick before I begin.  Sometimes once we begin to walk on the evolutionary path, we forget that we are still PEOPLE.  Life will still happen to each of us, no matter how enlightened.  Losing site of our humanity, even temporarily, only makes the process that much harder. You will still require THINGS.  Unless your path leads you to a convent or monastery(which TOTALLY defeats the purpose!), engaging in the world is the one thing that will keep you grounded.  I still LOVE to shop.  However,  I have noticed I gravitate towards things that make me genuinely happy.  Example, I NEED to see my eyelashes in my shadow(Yes, its a thing!), it makes me smile;-)  so I make sure they are ALWAYS poppin.  I probably wouldn't have had time to even discover that wonderful idiosyncrasy had I not been taking the time to access my...

Let's take a new approach to pain.  As a matter of fact, just negativity in general.  We know that if we control our breath in the heat of the moment, keeping our heart rate from elevating, its damn near impossible to get angry.  OK; so with that being said, why aren't we doing more to stay elevated?  Why are we so quick to lower our vibration to suit an undesirable situation?! A prime example of this is a breakup.  We don't eat, or the inverse, overeat; don't sleep, over analyze the relationship and how we performed.  We exhaust an enormous amount of emotion and energy on something that has ended.  Afterwards, we look just as crazy as we feel.  In any part of this process, had we just stopped for a moment to think about what we REALLY want out of those moments, perhaps the process could have been over SOOO much quicker. But What is it we are seeking in the midst of the breakup ritual??!!! The misconception is the belief that we are seek...

Emotion  is any  conscious experience [1] [2] [3] characterized by intense mental activity and a certain degree of  pleasure  or  displeasure . [4] [5] Scientific discourse has drifted to other meanings and there is no  consensus  on a definition. Emotion is often  intertwined  with  mood ,  temperament ,  personality ,  disposition , and  motivation . [6]  In some theories,  cognition  is an important aspect of emotion. Those acting primarily on the emotions they are feeling may seem as if they are not thinking, but mental processes are still essential, particularly in the interpretation of events. For example, the realization of our believing that we are in a dangerous situation and the subsequent arousal of our body's nervous system (rapid heartbeat and breathing, sweating, muscle tension) is integral to the experience of our feeling afraid. Other theories, however, claim that emotion is separate ...
